Mobil One will work for everything,including cleaning!
You will not see anyone endorse it as such on any board. Just try it for a thousand rounds and see how well it works. Vunderbah!! cpermd |

Don't know about using motor oil on firearms. However, Mobil does make a Mobil 1 spray lube which should work just as well as any other quality lube.

I have recently purchased a quart of Mobil 1 0w 30. It seems to be the same consistency of clp for what thats worth. I've heard it works good in ars. But I haven't heard of anything that won't work good in an ar. Except for WD-40 which is a much better penetrant than lubricant.

15-W-50 is what you want.
Any oil lighter than that should only be used in "contained" environments such as spring housings. Lighter oil will acually fly off some high-speed actions. Heavier oil will stick, thus the difference between oil and grease in many mechanical applications. I use Mobil 1 on my hanguns...three Glocks, S&W M19, Colt Pocketlite .380. I use Breakfree on rifles/shotguns. |

I believe they are using Mobil 1 full synthetic.

Not well, according to my tests. It was at the bottom of the pack when it came to corrosion resistance. I sprayed my test material with salt water for several days and recorded the results. The best protectants were 1) BreakFree CLP, 2) Royco CLP, 3) Eezox CLP, 4) SC Johnson's paste wax. Everything else was at the bottom of the pack. |
